Abstract: In the title complex, [Ni(C₁₁H₁₂N₃O₂)(C₂H₃O₂)(C₅H₅N)₂], the Ni^II atom exhibits a distorted octahedral geometry, with two N atoms and one O atom of a tridentate butane-2,3-dione monooxime benzoylhydrazone ligand and one acetate O atom in the equatorial plane, and two pyridine N atoms in the axial sites. The uncoordinated acetate O atom forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond with the oxime O atom of the hydrazone ligand, with an OO distance and an O-HO angle of 2.541  (4)  Å and 176  (5)°, respectively.
